Fall is the season of transformation, and hair color is no exception. We asked our expert stylists at Salon Ziba NYC to share their thoughts on this year’s most exciting trends, the latest product innovations, and how clients can keep their color looking fresh all season long.
1. How do you like the newly relaunched Majirel permanent hair color, and what makes it different from before?
“Less Ammonia makes it gentler for the scalp and hair, and still provides great 100% coverage of gray hair and its texture is way better for us to work with. “ As per JD
“ If you have been in the business for a while you know how color can smell bad but with this reformulation, it is smoother, and we don’t get the “Fumes” or the smell when we work with it. It’s clean” Says Taylor
2. What hair colors are you most excited about for fall 2025?
We love surreal dusk tones and the blending of rich dark colors to create deeper dimensions. Expensive brunette is another favorite, achieved by layering multiple golden undertones.
Color today is no longer as straightforward as it once was, and we now enjoy mixing different shades and hues to create more personalized looks that reflect each individual’s unique style. Take a look at some of the great coloring styles presented here by Bessy.
3. Are you noticing more demand for subtle, low-maintenance looks like lived-in highlights and balayage, or bold all-over color this season?
Low maintenance highlights and balayage are in high demand. Many of our clients love the idea of contrast and dimension without the commitment of monthly touch ups, so we create looks using babylights, sun kissed effects, foilyage, and face framing techniques for a softer definition in the highlights.
We also see more interest in what is often called Neo Highlights, which refers to a versatile approach to balayage or highlight placement. This method is tailored one on one to fit each client’s vision, since not everyone wants the same color. Great examples can be found by Dragan and Silk’s work
4. What role does hair glossing or toning play in achieving these fall looks?
A hair gloss or toner is a wonderful way to add shine or a touch of color for someone who does not want to commit to a full color process. Since it is not permanent, it gradually washes out after a few weeks. Glossing is especially perfect in the fall when summer sun and heat have faded or lightened color, as it restores tone, shine, and softness to every hair type.
There is no long term commitment, so you can enjoy glosses as often as you like or move on to something new. Sammy at our downtown location is known for her gloss work, and every client leaves with that radiant finish she loves as a natural brunette herself.
5. For clients thinking of a big seasonal change, what advice do you give to maintain healthy, long-lasting color?
A proper at home hair care routine can make all the difference in maintaining long lasting color. Brands like Kerastase and Oribe continue to lead with advanced technology that truly supports the health and vibrancy of your hair. Treatments such as Kerastase Soin Acide Chroma Gloss help lock in color, reduce fading, and protect the overall integrity of the hair, while the Oribe Mirror treatment, which we have offered through special newsletter promotions, adds exceptional shine.
Using sulfate free shampoos, along with regular in salon treatments like Kerastase Fusio Dose or the Milbon Repair Treatment, can further preserve both strength and radiance. Speak with your stylist to find the best regimen for your needs or explore our blog for more insights into these professional treatments.
6. What’s one underrated fall hair color trend that deserves more attention?
Pumpkin Spice hair colors! Red and Copper tone, Cherry cola or Caramel Mocha everyone is afraid to be a red head, but hot copper and red are great fall and winter colors. Cooler months often inspire us to wear deeper, more colorful clothing, so why not bring that warmth into your hair as well.
With modern techniques such as multi layering, toners, and glosses, we can add dimension and warmth without the need for bleaching. This makes it easy to embrace a seasonal color change with beautiful results and no long term commitment.
